โMy goal is to make my tutoring system available to any parents wishing to get the best education possible for their children,โ says Bert Lundy, a computer science professor, tutoring system developer, and author of the tutoring/education guidebook โLearn for Excellence: How to Prepare Your Children for College and Lifeโ (Dorrance, 2021).
Professor Lundy has a B.A. in Mathematics, minoring in German and History, from Texas A&M, and a Ph.D. in Computer Science from Georgia Tech, in Atlanta. He has taught and spoken internationally from London to Japan and has extensive professional experience in computer science, software engineering, and networking. Through all his experiences, he developed his specialized tutoring system, which he named โLearn for Excellenceโ and later expanded into a namesake book.
โLearn for Excellenceโ consists of two parts. The first part explains how the tutoring system works, so that parents can help their children get an excellent education despite the state of the US education system. The second part is a compilation of related newsletters, which give additional insight into education and related areas.
โLearn for Excellenceโ is designed for parents who want to get the best possible education for their children. It is also designed for homeschooled parents, teachers, and educators at all levels who want to improve or gain a better understanding of education, particularly the grades 1-12. Professor Lundy aims to address the teaching and learning defects in the public school system through his book โLearn for Excellenceโ, offering parents an alternative โ a tutoring system that is designed to give the best possible education in fields such as Math, English, Geography, History, Economics, Physical Fitness, and Health.
Professor Lundy hopes that his book (and tutoring system) will help student to excel not only in the academics but also in life. He believes that the purpose of education is more than just teaching Math, English, and other subjects but also teaching students to strive for excellence and encouraging them to become the best they can be. All students can excel in both academics and in life.
